Together, these methods contribute to a unique ecopedagogical journey. This word cloud …


Application Of Evolutionary Network Concept In Structuring Mathematics Curriculum, Aditi Mitra Jan 2018

Application Of Evolutionary Network Concept In Structuring Mathematics Curriculum, Aditi Mitra

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Phylogenetic tree and in general, evolutionary network, has found its application well beyond the biological fields and has even percolated into recent high demanding areas, such as data mining and social media chain reactions. An extensive survey of its current applications are presented here. An attempt has been made to apply the very concept in the mathematics course curriculum inside a degree program. Various features of the tree structure are identified within the curriculum network. To highlight various key components and to enhance the visual effect, several diagrams are presented. The combined effect of these diagram provides a sense of …
